So this chap could have headed for the hard shoulder to increase braking space.
From the angle of lane 2 you can't see if anything is parked on the hard shoulder next to the lorry, so shouldn't be assumed to be a safe exit plan, not only that but the speed he's travelling at if he was to attempt swinging to the hard shoulder that would turn the whole thing into a chicane around the truck and he'd be up the grass bank.
The bike had space to get through, its only because he panicked he swerves through the trucks instead of being straight!
Some say...
